thanks Dave, your a savior!

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='718746' date='Jan 20 2010, 09:31 AM']The ruler should be on the first fret and at least touching the 12th fret.[/quote] So the straight edge should be on the 1st fret NOT the nut?? This makes more sense to me but in the video it looks like Carl has it on the nut and I'm sure he says he puts it on the nut (unless he means up against the side not the top?) Argggh!

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='718733' date='Jan 20 2010, 09:15 AM']Why did you not keep going down to .008? Thats what Lakland recommend. The straighter the neck the lower you can bring the saddles down. It is just a guide though and it will depend on how hard you play. Could your neck already be shimmed? Maybe if it is take out the shim.[/quote] Surely if I kept straightening the neck the buzz at the 1st and 2nd would get worse? Forgive my ignorance!

I followed the video to do a setup on my Bob Glaub Skyline. I put a straight edge across the nut and 12th fret and used some feeler gauges to check at the 6th fret. There was a massive gap. So I adjust the truss rod a bit, getting closer! Got the gap to about 0.015 and had total fret buzz at the 1st and 2nd frets. So I raise the saddles a bit. Still buzzing. Raise them more to the point where it looks like it is going to run out of thread!!!! Still buzzing. Now I cannot see how to get the gap to 0.008, and have a low action, it does not seem possible. I have emailed Lakland but no reply yet as they are at NAMM.

Really nice guy to deal with. Did a trade with my Modulus for his Sadowsky and very very happy! Cheers Si

Hi all, Having heard some negative comments on Flea's own bass that he has released, I found this on youtube [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D45OMeDlALA&feature=channel_page"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D45OMeDlALA...re=channel_page[/url] Didn't think it sounded that bad? Anyone have some hands on experience with them?
